-The latest version of the alleged secret
treaty between Russia and Prussia ls given in
the Monday Review of Vienna. No actual
treaty, it ls said, exists, but an exchange ot
written declarations is alleged to have taken
place between Prince Gortschakoff and Connt
Bismarck from the 0th vp to the 13th of July.
1870. These declarations embrace five points,
the last of which stipulates that Prussia leaves
to Russia the choleo of the moment for de?

the Black Sea, and that Prussia guarantees
her support of thia demand on the part of
Russia under any circumstances.

-The Chinese, it is asserted, will. In the fu?
ture, exert a preponderating influence on the
shores.ot the Pacific. Ina recent lecture de?
livered rn New York, Rev. Dr. Scudder, who
bas resided many years in China, asserted
that, although for the present the Immigra?
tion of the coolies to California is checked, yet
.eventually-the western coast of America, from
Alaska to Patagonia, will be peopled by the
-Chinese, attracted thither by the hope of remu?
nerative wages. For the same reason It was
.stated that the islands of the Pacific would be
peopled by the Chinese. The natives of the
1 elafids, lt was argued, lack physical vitality,
and must die out and be replaced by the
Asiatics.
-Administration authorities hold out the
hope that the high commission will finish Its
work In three weeks, and that the Senate will
be conve&Srin a?racfdlnary session the first
week, la Kay to consider such treaty or treaties
aa may hare been ageeed upon. Of coane'
much depends ou the acceptance by the Brit?
ish boute governrnent of certain points pro?
posed by Its commisioners. The fishery
question is the principal difficulty, our ger-,
ernment standing on the position assumed
in 1853 and' then concededI by threat Britain.
All the information relative to the fisheries
and the" alleged amount of "losses by the
! Confederate' cruisers furnished from Brit?
ish shipyards, together with voluminous
oSlolal documents in that connection,
have been closely scrutinized in Joint meet?
ing, In order to a lull understanding of all the
points involved. There seems to be truth in
the statement that the baals proposed contem?
plates: First-The privilege of American
fishermen to fish within the parts of Canadian
waters from which they are now excluded,
and to land and dry their fish and cleanse
their nets, Ac. For the privilege the United
States la to pay Canada a certain sum of
money. Second-Certain general internation?
al principles are laid down, covering those of
neutrality, by wiiich claims arising from -?he
depredations of tba Alabama, Shenandoah,
&c, are to be adjusted. Third-Commlaslon
ern to be hereafter appointed to adjust the
matters on the basis proposed. It is further
said that this basis has been Bent to England
for approval.
Glimpses of Gotham.
We have engaged, as the regular corres
poodent of THE NEWS, a rising young New
York journalist, who, as a native of Charles-,
ton, can give thiB pnblic just such glimpses
of Gotham, and the Gothatnites, as are most
likely to be useful an?amusing. The first
or his letters to THE NEWE is printed to-day,
and will, we-are confident, satisfy our read?
ers that our New York correspondence will
be an interesting and a valuable feature of
this paper.
The Situation and the Remedy.
Colonel James H. Rion, in a letter to the
Columbia Phoenix, suggests a remedy for
our present grievances, although, be has
little hope that those who now have the
power in their hands will ever willingly sub?
mit to its least abatement. The proposi?
tions of Colonel Rion, in brief, are:
1. To resist the doable tax proposed to be
collected in November "in every way short
"of aotual rebellion." Colonel Bion thinks
that this whole difficulty may be removed
by the authorities requiring no tax to be
collected in November, 1871, a half-tax ia
March, 1872, and then a whole tax io No?
vember, 1872
2. An amendment to the Constitution re?
quiring four managers of elections at each
election precinct, two of whom are to be
chosen by each political party in the coun?
ties; to have the votes counted as soot as
the polls are closed, and the resalta aggre?
gated the second day after, by two from
each box, (one from each political party,)
assembling at the county seats.
3. An amendment to the Constitution re?
quiring the passage of every bill imposing
taxes, assessing the value of property for
taxation, borrowing money or raising reve?
nue in any way, and of every bill making
appropriations, creating any debt or liabili?
ty, or lending the faith and credit of the
State in any way, it to receive the vote of
three-fourths of the members of each house,
the same to be ascertained by a vote by
yeas and nays, made of record on the jour
uals of each house.
4. An amendment to tho Constitution re?
quiring that, apon the adoption of the two
foregoing amendments, all acts and parts
of acts relating to the assessment of prop?
erty for taxation, the imposition of taxes,
and providing for elections by the peoplq,
shall cease and be no longer of force, upon
the first meeting of the General Assembly
thereafter held; and that all acts anoVparta
of acts, relating to the aforesaid subjects,
passed by any General Assembly, shall cease
to be of force upon' the adjournment, of the
flrsf .sessieo of the General Assembly next
elected*' '.
Colonel Rion suggests these amendments
because neither a change of the qualifications
of voters or of office-holders, nor a change
in the present system of representation,
wonk! remedy the monstrous election'fraads
practiced upon us, the wholesale robbery of
oar property ander the'guise of taxation,
and th? squandering of the money raised
by taxation for purposes other than the
wants of au honest government. The con?
stitutional changes asked for impair no
right or privilege now possessed by the
colored people, and, by them, the real in?
terests of the negro would, in his opinion,
be promoted.
K. H. K.
The Sparenburg Republican, a paper
which, is Radical in flesh, bone and sinew,
says that, "whether combinations of Ku
"Klux Elans are to be found or not in these
"upper counties, we are bound to admit,
"with few exceptions, that they have never
"disturbed, in his daily avocations nor mid
"nigkt slumbers, any man who avowed Re?
publican principles." We hope that the
New York Tribune and all the other
Ku-Kl ux shriekers will take notice of this
emphatic declaration that the Ku-Klux, if
saeh there be, have never, with very few ex?
ceptions, disturbed any mau beca ase of his
Republican principles.
A Summary or the Fisheries Question.
The yatton, in a late Usue, gives a terse
summary of the opposing views of the two
countries opon the Northeastern Fisheries
question, now before the Joiut High Commis?
sion :
"This English presentation of the case is in
substance this : That the rights secured to
American fluhermen by the treaty of 1783 (to
fish on the coast of Newfoundland, and all
coasts, bays, harbors and creeks of English
colonies, and to dry and cure lu unsettled
bays, Ac, within certain limits) were abroga?
ted by the war of 1812, and that the rights ol'
American fishermen are now regulated by the
treaty of 1818, which was entered into by way
of settling the controversy which arose over
the effect of the war on the former. It is. the
latter, the operation of which, according to
the sub-committee, the abrogation of the Reci?
procity Treaty of 1854 restored. The treaty ol'
1818 gives the Colonial Government exclusive
dominion within three miles ot the coast, .sub?
ject to the rights ol' Americans lo Ash on de?
fined portions of the coast, Irrespective ol'this
limit. To the Presidents complaint that the
American fisuermen are dented the privilege
ot obtaining supplies and transhipping their
fish in Canadian ports, the sub-committee re
piles tbjf? thls-pttrllege has beer^lthdrawn to
pt events mu2gllng, and that it lathe undoubt?
ed* right or every nation (joting Mr. Clay to
Mr. Gallatin) 'to prohibit or ?How foreign
commerce with any portlon-of ito dornijaiccas.'
lb his Other oom plaint that Great Britain "in
..remitting the control and Jurisdiction of the
'inshore fishing-grounds to the Colonial authori?
ty, has remltterPit to an Independent but Irre?
sponsible agent,' the sub-committee replies i
that he is mistaken; that frem the decisions in
the Colonial Vice-Admiralty Courts, before
which all fishery cases mast come, an appeal
Hes to the Judicial committee .of the Privy
Council, an Imperial tribunal, and it questions
whether any of the American fishing vessels
'seized without notice or warning' were so
seized, 'while ignorantly violating the lecn
nlcal rights of Great Britain. The report is a
very cold and naked legal statement, and con?
fines itself mainly to the communication of
Information on questions of law and fact,
and ls chary In the expression of opinion.
"The American view, or rather, we should
say. the view which the article In the Law
Review propounds, and which lt is not im?
probable the American Commissioners will
maintain, is in substance that the treaty of
1783 "was, In so far as regarded the fishery
rights, one of perpetual obligation; that the
war ot 1812 did not affect it; that the treaty
of 1818, In .so tar as lt differed from that of
1783, was not an abandonment of any liberties
enjoyed under the treaty of 1783, but a simple
renunciation or waiver of a portion
o? these liberties. For this renuncia?
tion or waiver, and for this only, the
Reciprocity Treaty of 1854 was a substitute.
Tits last treaty having been abrogated in 1866,
the parties are thrown back for the definition
of their rights, not on the treaty of 1818,
which has been blotted out, but the treaty of
1783, and the fishing rights secured by that
treaty are in the nature of a public servitude
ol a higher kind than an easement, or the
Roman servitus, and closely approaching the
character of absolute dominium. The points
Involved are nlcefand will doubtless afford
materials for long discussion.
Timely Counsel.
The Sumter Watchman counsels "pru?
dence and moderation" in the May Conven
vention, and says :
"We must bear In mind that actual organ
ganlzed resistance will Insure .the coming of
the power of .the United States to force obedi?
ence, even though our resistive action be ac?
companied with a distinct disavowal of hostile
feeling or action toward the National Govern?
ment. In our Judgment, this Convention
should confer with the existing State authori?
ties as far as practicable, and put forth a calm,
deliberate, clear and forcible protest against*
and statement of, the terrible state of affairs
existing In this State financially-taking care
to avoid intemperate speeches and all purely
political matters. ' A publication like this to
the world might have some moral power
abroad, and give us some additional strength
? at home ; and we frankly say that we see but
f little else the Convention can do prudently or
with hope of good results."
DR. WiNSMrrn, who was shot a few weeks
ago, is out in a card expressing his approval
ol the May Convention of taxpayers. He
says : "A united, prudent and decisive
"movement on tte part of the taxpayers
"cannot fail to be felt, and may be produc?
tive of much relief."

IMPORTANT TO SUFFERERS
FROM NERVOUS EXCITEMENT.-A gentleman
residing ln'Orammercy Place, New York, (whose
name it would not be proper to mention,) was
suffering terribly about three weeks ago from the
effects of dissipation. He could not sleep, vomit?
ed frequently, was tormented by horrible fancies,
and could not keep a limb still. Opiates made
him worse. While In this condition he was visited
by a friend, who advised him to try PLANTATION
BITTER** as an anodyne, stomachic and tonic.
"No use." s .it the sick man, despondIngly; "noth?
ing will save me. I'm a gone case." "Pshaw!"
said his friend, "you're worth forty dead men
yet ! I'm going to doctor you now." So saying,
he put on hi? hat, and going to the nearest drug?
gist's, presently returned with a bottle of the
Bitters, of which he administered a duse forth?
with. It had a soothing, cheering, tran qullllzlng
eflect. For a week thereafter the gentleman
continued to take the tonic regularly, according
to the directions, and at the end or that time was
abie to return to business m sound health, and
with a clear intellect. This information ls tarn?
